[MOD] can we add getShadowCasterMaterialName()?

[0xC0DEFACE]

OgreTechnique stores the shadow caster material name but doesn't have an accessor function to let you see what it is.

Here is a patch for an accessor function:

Code: Select all

diff -r dac6bfcd3327 OgreMain/include/OgreTechnique.h

+		const Ogre::String& getShadowCasterMaterialName() const { return mShadowCasterMaterialName; }

 		void setShadowCasterMaterial(Ogre::MaterialPtr val);

Super simple change

Thanks!!

Man i am thinking of deleting your topics this subforum is not mantis so use our bugtracker for bug entries and feature requests.
Otherwise we will drunk in noise soon.

Ah. Fair enough! however the OgreSimpleSpline and OgreRotationalSpline one should stay I suppose, as I'm not 100% sure what is going on there and was hoping someone in the know, would be able to elaborate and confirm if this is a bug.

Would you like me to delete the other two and post them in mantis?

No keep it but do it the otherway around in the future.
